VERSE:
Em F# G D
Stone was in me when i was rougher
G Em C Cm G
Now my power has suffered in this hour, Of my oversleep

Alone with the beast and my skull choppers

Now i'm just a name dropper
C Cm G
And I'm bust in these deep slumberweeds
Em F#
Stone was in me
BRIDGE:
Bm Gmaj7
It's so damn late

Pull up those drapes

Hey, let's see just where we are (here it comes)
